What’s next for Copper?

Death, that’s what. Not quick and painless like boring Facebook quotes or, you know, love, but that’s what’s in for the future of mighty copper. A slow, bitter ending that will mark history of hair color in ways that only few of us will ever have a memory of. Good news though: YOU can prevent it. But first things first.

Why is copper fading away

Because it’s a strong color. You wear copper, you make a statement. You’re determined to grow your talents but you wouldn’t compromise on an exhausting daily job that would actually get you the money to do something with your bedroom music attempts or 300 pages of writing. It’s okay, your integrity is all that counts. And copper definitely sends the message across. But people are not patient anymore, not with your artistic strive, not with their own and definitely not with fiery hair colors.

Because strong means intense and intensity lasts not more than 21 seconds, at least according to my own math. Obviously, a color as intense as copper risks falling under the radar just as fast. Check out fashion week runways, NYC, Paris, whatever. Do you see any copper left?! Just saying

Because novelty is sometimes overestimated and what are all color technicians talking about right now? Bleached blonde. A color beyond all known blondes. A post on this tantalizing shade will be up soon, but before you rush to your hairstylist to get some of your own, read next.

Why should you save copper

Come on, absolutely all of the above. And I am looking forward to you adding your own in the comment section below.

How can copper be saved

Highlights or lowlights in different shades of warm blonde. Light up that copper and create some extra movement. It’s like when you’re into someone if you think of it. You kind of want to make your interest recognizable but you don’t want to get too personal you know what I mean?

Accessorize. If there’s a color in this world that can compliment outwear and vice versa, that’s copper.

Beanies. Personally I find Comme DesGarçons reliable in this area

Caps. Any shape and color you choose will do the copper trick

Coach jackets. Copper never looked this good.

And when your friend or even hairstylist says your color needs a change, let them alert the media. You know better.
